Stallion for Production
This section covers how to promote a bundle to production.
Stallion for Production
Stallion enables you to promote thoroughly tested bundles directly to production, ensuring that your users receive the latest updates. With a single click, you can distribute your feature to millions of users.
And don’t worry—we also offer a phased rollout feature to help you deploy smoothly without any hiccups.
Prerequisite:
Before continuing, please verify that both the SDK and CLI are installed. If they aren’t, consult our Installation Guide.
Step 1: Publish bundle to Stallion
First step to build and push updated bundle to Stallion. Check Publishing Bundle To Stallion
Step 2: Promote build to production
A Stallion build (uploaded bundle) can be promoted to production directly from the Stallion Dashboard. Simply select the build you want to send to your users from a bucket and click on Promote Bundle. Fill in the target app version for which you want to send the release, add the release notes and save.
Info:
Only users with admin privileges within the organization are allowed to promote a bundle to production.
Your promoted bundles are available under Releases section in the dashboard
Tip:
By default, the rollout percentage for a release is set to 0%, meaning only users logged into the SDK will receive the update initially. This feature can also be leveraged for testing in production environments.
Manually pause or rollback a release
A promoted release can be paused or rolled back from the Dashboard by editing the Releases section.
Pause
When a release is paused, it will no longer get downloaded for any new users in production. You can also unpause a release later.
Rollback
When a release is rolled back manually i.e. from dashboard, it will be removed from the memory and app will fall back to the previous stable release. Remember that a rolled back release is also paused by default. Does not get downloaded for any new users.
Manual rollback is useful in case you accidentally send a faulty release to production.
